Dr. Laureen Lawlor-Smith - ‘Therapeutic Carbohydrate Restriction Working with Cholesterol’

[@dombarton2483]

My father had 7 stents, after a massive heart attack in 2021. He was prescribed statins. I told him not to take them, and he never did. He is carnivore now and has better health than at anytime in the last 30 years. His EF has increased as well. He exercises everyday as well. If you truly want better health you must ditch all carbs and seed based oils.

[@mariagibb8185]

Such an excellent and concise talk on lipids and cholesterol. Thank you….

[@PGpenny6]

Thank you so much for your courage to speak up for the issues surrounding LDL and statin use! All the Best!

It's a shame, I basically live around the corner from this clinic but it's too expensive to use their services because the cost is only covered partially by medicare. Yet, the government will spend buttloads on "Sickness care" rather than "Preventative care" like this clinic offers to people. It screws me over because not going there makes me more likely to develop disease, it screws them over because they're missing out on clients to make cash from. These people should be conpensated for the work they do as it's more important than a lot of work being compensated for and we deserve to never have to have our problems develop in the first place. The worlds health standards have gone mental, it's a global issue clearly.

Going to a doctor that says you have high cholesterol and you need to go on Statins, find another doctor. I watch a video were they interviewed several Cardiologist. They found no correlation between high cholesterol and heart disease or blockages in the arteries. Patients that had high cholesterol that they thought they were going to see blockages and damage they found nothing and Patients they thought they'd find nothing found blockages and damage. There has been other studies that found people with high cholesterol lived longer. This high cholesterol crap is more pushed by Pharmaceutical companies that push Statins that are actually dangerous because they stop you making CoQ10 the one thing your heart needs to work just to made money around 25 billion a year .

Problem is finding another Doctor. There aren't many around. Sunshine Coast Queensland, if anyone has any recommendations

[@patriciamaclennan5634]

Totally agree with you.

[@scoobtoober2975]

I'd love to hear talks on bile acid and it's implications of low production. I had poor digestion on a high carb diet. And poor digestion on black tea intake. If you can't digest and assimilate foods or vitamins into your blood or tissues. What's the point of eatting. Just fast for some time. Then try again. Another discussion on nitric oxide production. Fluoride and other anti-bacterials shut that down or hamper production. For me, getting to low carb or fasting, drops my resting heart rate 10 bpm in just a few days. 60-65 then to 45-55 ish. Easy and can be measured with hrv monitor. HRV score goes up too. It has to be related to that in some way. Veins don't look any more puffy than before either. Get you cardio in when ever possible. Love these talks.

[@christiangourley3873]

Why low carb instead of NO Carb? Humans do not need any carbs because the body produces all the glucagon and glucose it needs from animal fat!! I don't get the insistence of consuming any carbs.

[@reximusprime31]

Just because humans can get away with out eating carbs it does not mean it is optimal for most people. Just the same goes for no animal products. You can get along with out them but it is optimal for most people to add them in your diet.

[@RanjanNag-bz6vo]

I agreed that create confusion i think eggs n meat have some small amount of carbs.

[@jobrown8146]

I've been low carb since Oct 2021 and recently started reducing the low carb veggies. But I don't think I could ever go completely no carb simply because I like a bit of variety and I've never been a big meat eater until recently.

[@mom2bbjandag]

For me personally, it's almost impossible to eat ZERO carbs. Even one egg or one ounce of cheese has a small amount of carbs.

[@martinlang9615]

Good question. Perhaps Zero carb is not practically possible, rather low carb is. I’m just guessing here though.

[@pmccord9]

Whew. Good work. Almost too much great information. 😮

[@anewlifestirring]

I am on a low carb diet over the last 5 years, reversing a T2D resistant to metformin, losing 30kg and maintained through a chemotherapy for a generalised lymphoma, with the approval of my haematologists, and an exceptional result. My very low triglyceride is compensated by a slight increase in LDH. I occasionally introduce a carbohydrate meal that is followed by hunger pangs and I consider myself as a T2D with insulin resistance compensated by a low carbohydrate diet.

[@RollingBluesBoy]

Concerning studies with LDL and HDL : I have read that the Friedewald - formula ( still often used in Germany) is guessing the LDL, not measuring?

[@Malcolm-Achtman]

Correct! It's a fabricated calculation.

[@katrinapeacock8317]

This was an incredibly helpful talk, thank you. It might be tricky to arrest all of the firemen haha, but it was definitely a helpful analogy. The data on the outcomes of taking statins kinda makes me angry and I'm glad you mentioned to emotional side of trying to deal with your health amidst conflicting advice. I think you need courage as an individual to make considered choices outside of mainstream, and I imagine you need even more courage as a practitioner.

[@Astronurd]

WTF are you talking about Twitter is bad now??? It's actually great now that you don't get cancelled for speaking truth.

[@scoobtoober2975]

A lean neighbor started working out a lot a few years ago. I had a small talk with him and he said his doctor said he should eat low fat. He said, oh i can't eat eggs any more. Should cut out all gluten. Should exercise. No butter to cook with. Olive oil is king he says. A few months later he got an ambulance ride, and we asked him about it. It was around midnight, nurse neighbors came out to help. We have 3 of them near by for trauma help. He said, oh i was kind of out of it and we wanted to take precautions to check it out. He probably had a clot doing something to his brain. But they said, nothing was wrong. That he's mentioned. He's still towing the line and i'm disgusted that for many that is how it is. They are programmed to shut out any non doctor opinions, even if i give him the research about it. Screw you main stream and threating licenses. Disgusting there's no much research that shows the contrary and here we are on YT learning truth about research that doesn't fit the "one" model. Wait, i have what problem. And you think i need this drug. When i'm a workout machine and keto fat adapted. And then had to do his own research. I love you Dave. I love you Laureen for speaking out about the line towing that needs to stop. Be well everyone. I'm finally able to eat butter and salt and iodine every day with glee. It does make me feel better. The simplest thing that makes me feel good and energized and calm all day. Ice cold showers. You have to try it. 1 min. that's it. Start warm/cool, then cold, then hot, then cold to finish. You might go numb on the skin in areas, thats good for 1 min. Then feel the energy for hours.

[@TheNightKiing]

Thank you for this video! Can anyone recommend a GP in Sydney that's knowledgeable with Low Carb/Zero Carb patients? I recently started Carnivore and wanted to change GP that understands how Low Carb/Zero Carb affects LDL.

[@hda300]

Watch Dr Troy Stapleton videos on KZbin. A Australia doctor that diagnosed himself with Type 1 diabetes he followed the specialist advice but it didn't work. Went on a low carb high fat diet and went from 4-5 insulin injection a day to one and his health and fitness greatly improved.

I think measuring CAC alone is like measuring LDL without HDL/TG.

Twitter horrible...? To me Twitter was terrible in the past, but now more debate is allowed and accepted. Trolls will allways be on any social media, just ignore/block.

Yes that comment struck me as strange too 🤔 - does she want to bring back the medical censorship?

[@drirene57]

As you were wrong about LDL cholesterol, you’re wrong about Twitter. It’s about freedom of speech.

[@marionsanta2883]

What about people with stents...and statins.

[@dombarton2483]

Statins are not necessary. Stopping all carbs and seed based oils is far better.

[@marionsanta2883]
